Wooden Bun Foot 85mm diameter x 43mm Black

Wooden Bun Foot 85mm Diameter x 43mm

The Wooden Bun Foot 85mm Diameter x 43mm is a compact European Beech hardwood furniture foot for sofas, armchairs, footstools, cabinets and other furniture requiring a simple rounded support.

Its 85mm diameter gives it a broader appearance than the smaller 68mm bun foot, while the low 43mm height keeps furniture relatively close to the floor.

The uncomplicated rounded profile works well on traditional and furniture where a small wooden support is preferred to a taller turned or tapered leg.

a M8 threaded fitting allows the foot to screw into a compatible furniture fixing.

Available in Black, Mahogany, Natural, Oak, Raw and Wenge, it can be selected to complement a wide range of upholstery and furniture finishes.

Before ordering, check:

• Existing thread size
• Condition of the threaded fixing
• Furniture-frame construction
• Available mounting area

• Number of feet required

Do not force a M8 threaded foot into an incompatible fixing.

Replacing Existing Furniture Feet

The Wooden Bun Foot can be used when existing sofa, chair or cabinet feet are damaged, missing or being changed during refurbishment.

Before fitting replacement feet:

1. Support the furniture safely.
2. Remove one existing foot where possible.
3. Measure its diameter and height.
4. Check the existing thread size.
5. Inspect the furniture-frame fixing.
6. Compare the replacement dimensions.
7. Select the required finish.
8. Check that the furniture sits level after fitting.

Replacing matching feet together helps maintain consistent height and appearance.

Choosing the Correct Finish

The Wooden Bun Foot is available in six finish options.

Black

The Black finish provides a dark, understated appearance suited to furniture and darker upholstery.

Mahogany

The Mahogany finish provides a traditional darker timber appearance suited to classic sofas, armchairs and richer upholstery colours.

Natural

The Natural finish provides a lighter timber appearance where the character of the European Beech is intended to remain visible.

Oak

The Oak finish complements lighter wooden furniture and interiors using oak-style tones.

Raw

The Raw option is supplied unfinished, allowing the European Beech timber to be stained, painted or otherwise finished specifically for the furniture project.

Wenge

The Wenge finish provides a very dark wood-style appearance suited to furniture and stronger contrasts with lighter upholstery.

Raw European Beech for Bespoke Finishing

The Raw option is particularly useful for furniture restoration and bespoke manufacture where the foot needs to match an existing timber finish.

Depending on the required appearance, the timber can be:

• Stained
• Painted
• Sealed
• Lacquered
• Polished

Browse Woodcare, Stains & Lacquers for suitable furniture-finishing products.

Before applying a finish:

• Make sure the timber is clean and dry
• Sand where required
• Remove sanding dust
• Test the chosen finish on a small area
• Follow the manufacturer's application instructions
• Allow the finish to dry fully before fitting

Metal Glide Fitted to the Base

The bun foot is supplied with a metal glide fitted to the base.

Where furniture will sit on wooden, laminate or other vulnerable hard flooring, the metal glide can be removed and replaced with suitable felt protection.

Self-Adhesive Felt Pads can provide a softer floor-contact surface where correctly fitted.

Check floor protectors periodically and replace them when worn.

Bun Foot or Tapered Wooden Leg?

For furniture requiring considerably more height, consider the Round Tapered Wooden Leg 40mm Diameter x 150mm Tall.

For still greater height, see the Round Tapered Wooden Leg 45mm Diameter x 200mm Tall.

Choose the Wooden Bun Foot where:

• Furniture should remain close to the floor
• A broad rounded support is preferred
• Minimal additional height is required
• A compact furniture foot suits the design

Choose a tapered leg where:

• Greater ground clearance is required
• A slim visible leg is preferred
• A lighter raised furniture appearance suits the design

Protecting the Furniture Base

The Plastic 50mm Serrated Washer can be used with suitable M8 furniture-leg installations.

It can help separate the top of the wooden foot from the underside covering and reduce movement where compatible with the furniture construction.

Always ensure sufficient M8 thread remains securely engaged after fitting any washer or additional component.

Check Before Ordering

Before ordering, check:

• 85mm diameter
• 43mm height
• M8 threaded fitting
• Existing furniture-foot dimensions
• Available mounting area
• Required finished furniture height
• Furniture-frame construction
• Condition of the existing fixing
• Number of feet required
• Required finish
• Floor surface

Where replacing an existing furniture foot, remove and measure one original wherever possible.
